Some people get a bit carried away with “fiscal conservatism”.
20% down is a nice ideal, but life is not always ideal. I would say at todays prices 5% should be a minimum.
You make a 120k? I always seem to notice that people on this board state these incredible incomes, and yet in my own life I know very few people who make anywhere near 100k.

December 21, 2007 at 8:56 PM #122525CogSciGuyParticipantCogSciGuy, if you could get a loan for $1 million at a PTI of $2500, would you take it?
Sure, probably. Wouldn’t you? If I’m purchasing a property with a PITI of $2500/month, I bet I could rent it out for many multiples of $2500/month.
Or was there a different point you were trying to make?
